| Summary | "Ten Months in a German Raider: A Prisoner of War Aboard the Wolf" by John Stanley Cameron is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The narrative follows Captain Cameron, the master of the American bark "Beluga", detailing his harrowing experience of being captured by the German raider "Wolf" during World War I. Through his eyes, readers gain insight into life aboard a warship and the struggles endured by him and his family during their captivity. The opening of the account introduces Captain Cameron as he reflects on the life-altering decision to set sail on the "Beluga", initially aimed at a peaceful journey to Australia. However, the tranquil voyage quickly shifts into chaos when they encounter the "Wolf". As the German ship captures the "Beluga", Cameron feels the fear for his wife and daughter, showcasing the emotional turmoil of being thrust into a terrible situation. The reader is then ushered into the complexities of life aboard the "Wolf", exploring both camaraderie and conflict among prisoners and captors as they navigate the brutal realities of war at sea.
